I'm 6 1/2wks out and have only lost 24 pounds. I'm thinking that everyone looses at their own pace and eventually we all end up in the same place. So im choosing to believe that this pace is right for me.

Yep, perfectly.  My surgeon told me to expect to lose three to five pounds a week.  Some lose less, some lose more, but you are very normal.

 I have lost 41 (at my last visit on the first) that was at 6 weeks. I'm not braging, I was just trying to add to the everyone loses differently. Are you losing inches?? When I hit a stall I am all ways happy to see that I am losing inches.

Go try on some of your clothes and i bet you will see the difference! I didn't think that i looked like i lost much so i tried on some jeans and wow was i surprised! The old ones fit and my recent work clothes looked like clown pants! I think that just because you dont loose pounds you are loosing inches for sure

Also, are you making sure your getting your protein in?? My nutritionist said that is so important, that if youdont your body kind of goes in starvation mode and wasnts to hold onto your "fat" instead of letting it go :)
